2021 NASCAR Cup Series

Originally compiled by BWBarefoot.

The 2021 schedule was released by NASCAR on Sep. 30, 2020.

It was another year of tremendous changes to the Cup Series schedule.  A dirt-track event was added for the first time since 1970, and the number of road course races increased from two to eight. (That number included the season-opening exhibition Busch Clash on the Daytona road course, and an schedule change announced on Dec. 8, when Auto Club Speedway was stripped of its race weekend and given to Daytona RC.  At the same time, the Homestead-Miami weekend was pushed back by one week.)

The NASCAR All-Star Race was conducted at Texas Motor Speedway.  It marked the first consecutive years of the race not being held at Charlotte Motor Speedway (Bristol hosted the 2020 race), and also the first time on Sunday night.

FOX and NBC will show top-level NASCAR events in the seventh year of a 10-year contract.

Clint Bowyer, who became a full-time NASCAR on Fox analyst at the end of his racing career in 2020, joined Mike Joy and Jeff Gordon in the booth, with Larry McReynolds again contributing from Charlotte headquarters.  Chris Myers, who was part of NASCAR on Fox from 2001 to '18, rejoined the team for NASCAR RaceDay and reported from the site of each race except for the All-Star Race.  Myers was absent from that event due to a conflict with the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show.

The biggest news in the NBC portion of the schedule was the demise of the Brickyard 400.  Instead, when Cup cars raced at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, it was on the road course.  The Xfinity Series and IndyCar Series shared the bill the day before.

The new Road America and Nashville Superspeedway races and the second Atlanta date were also part of NBC Sports' coverage.  Chicagoland and Kentucky were out, and Dover and Michigan were down to one date each.

With the Summer Olympics postponed by a year, NASCAR again programmed a two-week break at that time.  Except for Texas and Kansas swapping dates, the playoffs will be unchanged.

All races assigned to NBCSN stayed there, even after NBC Sports indicated a move or simulcast of some races to USA Network.  Peacock is scheduled to stream three races in a simulcast as indicated with asterisks. NBCSN shut down on December 31, 2021, the final NASCAR race on NBCSN was the Xfinity Series championship race.

Jac Collinsworth joined coverage as a roving reporter for the first two months of this portion.

Practice and qualifying sessions were not held at a majority of NASCAR race weekends due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Lucas Oil 150 - 11/5, 8:00, FS1 - Vince Welch, Michael Waltrip, Phil Parsons, Jamie Little, Regan Smith, Josh Sims

ARCA Menards Series

The 20-race schedule will include eight on FS1 or FS2, with the rest on MAVTV.  Races that will be part of the Sioux Chief Showdown have an asterisk next to their dates.

Fox Sports made a huge announcement in November when Jamie Little was named the new lap-by-lap commentator.  She is the first woman to hold that role full-time for any motorsports race coverage in the U.S.

East and West series races will continue on NBC Sports Gold's TrackPass, with NBCSN airing edited hour-long versions.  The Iowa, Milwaukee and Bristol races had separate points battles for the national and East series during the same race.
